Tracking Yes: A Guide to Everyday Magic - with Liz Wiltzen, PCC

Show Notes:

My guest today is Doug Van Houten, Nature-based Soul Guide. Join us for a fascinating exploration into the ways we've lost touch with our innate, wild relationship with the natural world, and how coming back into that relationship brings us home to our deepest sense of meaning and purpose.

Doug shares the essence of nature based spirituality, and specifically the healing and wholing work he does in his role guiding life-altering wilderness intensive retreats with Animas Valley Institute. He answers questions about:

• how dialoguing with nature can help us navigate our planetary crisis
• healing the pathological adolescence of our culture
• embodying wholeness: reclaiming our archetypal aspects of self
• the essential role of elders in re-establishing healthy earth societies
• vision fasting: the practice, purpose and power of soul encounter
• Bill Plotkin’s model of The Nature Based Map of the Psyche
